SAN ANTONIO -- In 2009, San Antonio dispatchers
couldn’t believe their ears: a 911 call was made from a homeless couple
camping near Hwy 151.
The anonymous couple claimed a Bigfoot was in woods with them."That news story that you covered, that's what let the cat out of the bag," said self-proclaimed Bigfoot hunter Rick Dyer.
Dyer said that report prompted him to head to Texas, where he tracked down the Sasquatch and shot not one—but two--of the beasts near Loop 1604 in northwest Bexar County.
"There's no allegedly about it. I shot and killed the beasts there," Dyer said.
If Dyer’s name sounds familiar to viewers, it’s because he made KENS 5 news for other reasons in 2011, when San Antonio police arrested him for defrauding folks on eBay, for allegedly selling them Corvettes he never delivered.
But Dyer’s real fame comes among the Bigfoot hunting community: where he is known for a Sasquatch hoax in 2008 that gained international attention.
Dyer said he’s on tour now with his latest “kill,” to restore his reputation.
"It's just impossible to be faked. I don't have the budget to fake it, if it could be done," Dyer said.
